The holiday is named after two men, both Christian martyrs named Valentine. In 496 the pope declared that the feast of St. Valentine would be on February 14. The day became associated with romantic love in the Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine’s cards and candy.
